What Causes Rough Feeling In The Rectal Area?

IS it a problem that I should worry about if after going to the bathroom there is a rough area in the rectum and almost every time a need to wipe with vasoline afterwards? Has been going on for maybe 10 years, but has gotten a little worse over the last few months.
